Domoticz app 2.0 Topic is solved

[Kiremas]

I'm not able to connect with https, it will give me an error (timeout error or not connected)
I tried on a galaxy S4 mini and with Bluestacks on two different domoticz installations but no-go. (everything is ok with web interface)

I see that other people in this thread do this without a problem so am I missing something?

[rlschulz]

I'm getting really frustrated about two things on our Samsung Galaxy s7 and s7 Edge. Both running latest possible android updates. I hope someone can help.

Geofencing:
Me and my girlfriend use the geofencing function to check if anybody is home. If not, Domoticz makes sure that the heating is turned off, lights and other devices are switched off etc. Since we went from iPhones to these Samsungs, it never ever worked properly anymore. I've switched a couple of times between the beta and stable domoticz app, I've played with multiple servers (local IP and https for external). I've tried different ranges from 250 to 1000 Meters. I've tried everything but it only works _sometimes_. The geofencing seems to be much worse than the iphone, that was really stable, always correct and only switched once when really leaving of exiting an area.

The geofencing part itself seems to work pretty accurate as I'm notified that I enter or leave the geofence, but why is it not applied to the configured button, when I get a "leaving location" notification, the switch is not turned off. When I manually change a switch using the app, it always works without errors, inside and outside the local network.

I've tried another app, Domofence. It seems to be even worse with this one.

Battery usage:
Android let's me know that the battery usage for Domoticz with Geofencing enabled is more than 1% per hour. I've disabled the monitoring for this app but isn't it a little bit too much?

Thanks!

Did you ever get this resolved? I am having the same issue with an S6 Edge

Hi all. Anyone who can tell me how I send notifications to the domoticz app? The test button works, but i don't know how to send Lua notifications to these devices after disabling growl etc. Nevermind, I missed the GCM option in the notification settings.

Did you ever get this resolved? I am having the same issue with an S6 Edge

No, I'm now using autotasker and autolocation to send the home\away status to domoticz. It seems to work slightly better. I use the wifi-near status to enable the phone location services for a couple of minutes when my phone is near my home wifi or when it is suddenly not near the home wifi. For me it works for 100% but the same settings on my girls non edge s7 are sometimes a little too late.

On my telephone I can change the sound for notification s to my own choices .but on my tablet I can't choose my own sound only the sound s that available in domoticz I'm using the last stable version

Is there any development on mydomoticz support?

I am currently using ssh-tunnels together with the app, but I would really like a no-hassle solution for remote control of my home.

Is there any news on this?

I like to use some feature from the payed version of the app but i don't like to have any ports forwarded

I have this problem also with the S6 Edge. But it is not a problem with the app but with the way Geofenche is working on the phone. I tryed lot of apps but the al have the same problem. Even when the phone is not moving at home it sometimes leaves the house on it own

[Brutus]

I'm not experiencing the same... the app notifies me when I am leaving or comming in to an area. (At geofence you can turn this on or off: "Enable Notifications for Geofences")

For a couple of days a saw that the app notifies me but sometimes not trigger the switch in Domoticz that is attached to it. So I think that something is wrong there.

Also at home I see that the app multiple times switched between on and off I have a 500m radius at my home. I think that thats a problem of not having good gps reception in home. But thats also anoying.

I don't know nothing about app programming. But maybe there needs to be a buildin check that checks if the switch is flipped. Is it not do it again.

[mikeoo]

Example while walking. I was walking but not further then the yellow line (down side of the line).
All above the yellow line I was not there.

But now the phone is further away and so the switch is turned Off because it is more then 500 meter away.



All GPS settings are set to the most accurate ones.

It's really a shame if this is true. This functionality is rendered completely useless then. I need to investigate bluetooth now as a replacement, hopefully it's more reliable.

My solution :
I set with tasker uservar (json) in domoticz on 5 events :
- Wifi near (home&work)
- Wifi connect (home)
- Wifi disconnect
- BT connect (car)
- BT disconnect

That together with Geofences seems to be very reliable. Even when the location is turned of (whatever reason) it still works by home network detection.

btw :
I excluded the domoticz & tasker app from the battery saving options (does not help when in batt saving mode)
still had issues sometimes with 5km geofence not being triggered or being out of range during the night while sleeping

Notifications gone bad

Domoticz versie: 3.8143

UPDATE: on version 3.8153 it seems to be OK again

[Lasermi]

Hello all. I have been using domotcz lite app for a while without issues. I bought the full version yesterday so as to add geofences... and both apps stopped working with the update rolled out today in Playstore. Both the light as the full version shut down as soon as I start them. For reference, I'm using Domoticz 3.8342 on Rasperry with Raspbian Stretch and the 0.1.412 (3251) of the Android app. Disabling mobile data allows me to open the app but of course with no functionality. Over wifi, everything is ok. How can I help troubleshoot the issue?

Update: my problem had something to.do with user settings and autentification. I'm still trying to find out what happened precisely, but I solved the issue for now by removing all users and changing the admin password. Sorry and thanks!!

There isn't any issues with the installation or connection settings. The dashboard loads fine after a while, but it can take a minute.
From browser (desktop or mobile) the dashboard loads like the wind.

When opening the app, first there is a blank page with ads showing, then a toast with error message and lastly the dashboard loads.

How did you get the up en and down arrow for the blinds? I only have on/off for my blinds. I made an export of the devicetype. Maybe this device type can also be added in the app as blinds with the up and down arrow?

Hello I bought the App and I found this little bug :

1- Notifications appear / disappear furtively in the notification bar of android.
the vibrator is working then can read the notification in the Parameters\notifications\Notification parameters\last notifications

2- I cannot select a sound for alarm notification

Great App !

Regards

phone : Ufeel / Android 6.0
Android Domoticz App : 0.1.413
Domoticz : 3.8153

Notifications are working well now, for those who own a wiko phone : I setup the 360 security app which was blocking several app notification and I authorize Domoticz App to notify

those notification security issues are also applicable for MIUI devices (Xiaomi Mi5 for example)

[HansieNL]

The on/off selectors are black if selelected on. Is it possible to have the same color as in the settings menu?

The same here. Till a few weeks ago it was reliable. Never mist a trigger. Now sometimes it triggers and sometimes not. I always receive the notification from the app, so geofence should be working.

[TiXav]

I think I found a bug in the vocal command part.
When I assocciated a vocal command to a scene the app accept it. When I come back to the vocal menu for associating, the vocal command is not associateed any more.

A question about vocal command : Is it possible to use "Google assistant" to control the domoticz app ?
